A week ago, Charlie taught Rachel and me to extract honey. First, we removed the wax cap which covers the honey combs, and then spinned the extractor to wonder at the honey flowing into the jar. I found it deeply satisfying to produce honey or milk. There is something very gratifying about witnessing the whole process and being able to extract the final product. I find myself grateful to the bees and the goats for their work and enjoy their production all the more.
